The West Georgia Wolves have had a doozy of a road trip, not playing a game in the friendly confines of Grisham Stadium since the first game of the season on August 26. Since that time, the Wolves have traveled over 2600 miles, playing three different opponents with a combined record of 11-4 on the season. Last week, West Georgia's trip took them to Arkadelphia, AR, to take on the Henderson State Reddies. The Wolves mustered three field goals off of the foot of freshman kicker Casey Hale, but a late Reddie touchdown proved to be the game-winner, as HSU took the 16-9 victory. Against the Reddies, the Wolves faced a running quarterback in Garrett Manning, who rushed for 126 yards against West Georgia. In the Bison, UWG takes on the top running back in the Gulf South Conference in Kyle Wess. -
